Cons:

  • "The mixed grill meat was very sour and DEFINITELY not worth it in terms of value."
  • "The meat smelt foul, the portions were very small, the atmosphere not so good."
  • "The falafel is proper and not dry. Almost went and got another lamb wrap, but my wife said that 1 per day is appropriate."

Service Experience

Pros:

  • "We sat in. Lovely place great friendly service. Owner is great guy."
  • "The staff were all super friendly and as soon as we entered the restaurant there was excellent service."
  • "Service was fine, it was my own bad choice."
  • "Very laid back relaxed restaurant, food & service was amazing, hanif was the best waiter."
  • "Welcoming staff who were both friendly and happy throughout the meal."
  • "Lovely place with great gluten free! The lady who I presume runs this little gem is absolutely lovely also."
  • "Lovely chicken Shawarma, staff very nice, owner even wrapped half of the shawarma up for us to take home."
  • "Jacob was fantastic on our visit today, great reccomendations and such friendly service."

Cons:

  • "Good food, service not so. Admittedly we called on a very busy day, managed to grab a seat in the back, in what felt like a sauna."
  • "Ordered two wraps and a burger & chips, burger didn’t even show up and when reported they refunded £5 when the missing item was £13."
  • "During a short stay in York, we went with a large group of little kids for a dine-in shawerma experince.. asked the team behind the counter to offer them what they want and once done, log everything and we pay the entire bill. Soon after they settled into a table, kids started picking drinks from the fridge..and a team member started shouting at them."
  • "Absolutely abominable service by Middle Feast! Order placed at 6pm didn’t arrive until 7:47pm. When it arrived it was only half the order!"
  • "As a manager i would think you would be a little more professional. I find you very unprofessional the way you talk to the 1 star reviews is unacceptable you should be more understanding to your customers."
  • "Was treated poorly by pretty arrogant and rude owner. Shame as food looked nice."
  • "Very bad customer service. I have a very bad incident today. I felt ashamed by the staff rude behaviour today evening when I about to enter the restaurant."
  • "Totally disgusted with the staff's attitude. We went in for some takeaway food (2 ladies) and was spoken to in a derogatory and demeaning way by one of the serving staff."

Ambiance and Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "Belly dancing on the tv made for a great atmosphere."
  • "Cracking little Middle Eastern shwarma take away and cafe in the heart of York."
  • "This amazing restaurant was the first place me and my fiancé have had dinner at on our week holiday to York and it sets the bar high for the rest of the week."
  • "Lovely little place. Super tasty falafel/shawarma wraps, they were a flavour explosion! Also they do great cocktails!"
  • "We stopped by for lunch and got some seats outside. The wraps were very generous and were tasty."
  • "Ever heard the saying NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER well this is the Middle Feast."
  • "Had a lovely day with my wife out in York. Choose a chicken wrap from middle feast and quite frankly the best kebab/wrap I have ever tasted.. Wonderful staff and I we will be returning each visit to York 👍"
  • "The atmosphere indoors, a tight squeeze for the pram we had and we preferred outdoor dining anyway."

Cons:

  • "However, my only suggestion is to reduce the use of coriander in Falafel. As for the ambience, I believe they should consider revamping the decoration to match the Mediterranean theme."
  • "It was a bit of a shame that there were rubbish bags outside the shop next door. So we turned the chairs and faced the opposite direction."
  • "No idea about the food, but I know the Noise they create is unnecessary and unacceptable."
  • "We visited here when it first opened..Loved the food and the staff ..was looking forward to visiting today but think it may have changed owners? The food was not as tasty and the man serving wasn't interested in advising us which sauce unlike last time ...the sauce bottles were dirty also ...not impressed!!"
